Terraform CI-CD with Azure DevOps - Visualpath HashiCorp Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you define both cloud and onprem resources in human-readable configuration files that you can version, reuse, and share. You can then use a consistent workflow to provision and manage all of your infrastructure throughout its lifecycle. Terraform can manage low-level components like compute, storage, and networking resources, as well as high-level components like DNS entries and SaaS features.

Tools used: 1. TFsec: is a static analysis security scanner for your Terraform code. TFsec takes a developer-first approach to scan your Terraform templates; using static analysis and deep integration with the official HCL parser ensures that security issues can be detected before your infrastructure changes take effect.
2. TFlint is a framework and each feature is provided by plugins, the key features are as follows: • • •
Find possible errors (like illegal instance types) for Major Cloud providers (AWS/Azure/GCP). Warn about deprecated syntax and unused declarations. Enforce best practices and naming conventions.
3. InfraCost Infracost shows cloud cost estimates for Terraform. It lets DevOps, SRE, and engineers see a cost breakdown and understand costs before making changes, either in the terminal or in pull requests. It can also show us the difference between our present state and desired state.
